Smiling

Don’t let the world change your smile, let your smile change the world. (Ravi Shankar, late Bengali musician)

Does it seem to you that a lot of people are not smiling nowadays? They seem to be burdened by the threats of unemployment, disease, or protests in the streets. They might even be frowning, their minds filled with the troubles of the world, as if they’re carrying those concerns all by themselves. Perhaps, we could help them simply by sharing a smile; maybe they’ll smile, too. 

A glad heart makes a happy face. (Proverbs 15:13)
